For those looking for a nice intro to AJAX, both Michael of Binary Bonsai and IBM Developer Works have writeups. Michael’s is more about the Scriptaculous JavaScript library, but it’s worth reading. You can find Michael’s writeup here and IBM’s writeup here.
The scant posts here at SWL are a product of a lot […]
I recently discovered a small problem with some of the Theme Switcher code and the Recent Comments plugin that was part of the Elvgren theme on this site (all you Elvgren users don’t have to worry about this), but I’ve turned off the cookie that stores your theme preference, so the site may suddenly display […]
For those who have not been viewing the site through their favorite newsreader, have noticed the tweaks and changes to the blog design which have been the result of several things:
Most importantly, some of the new designs I’m experimenting with for both Taft and Elvgren
The evolution of Michael’s K2 project
My most recent discovery, through the […]
As per a question by Eric, if there are any others of you interested in how the Archives display like:
2005
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
2004
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

The future is coming, the question is really what will it be and where will we end up? I’m absolutely fascinated by the progress on Wordpress, the community that has sprouted up around it, its proliferation of web standards, and the future of web apps. Wordpress isn’t the root of things like AJAX, […]
Echoing the rebirth of thought in web design, I read (along with much of the rest of the design blogosphere apparently) an interesting if somewhat controversial postulate in web design: “Embrace the scroll”
A Brief History
For those not privy to the discussion, after the initial revolution in web design when pages/sites went from LOOOOOOONG pages of […]
No matter what most of us think or say, the Kubrick theme and its relevance to Wordpress can’t be easily ignored. Due credit to Michael, over at his site Binary Bonsai, who has elevated the blogging artform hand-in-hand with Wordpress. Kubrick’s second revision known as K2, is no-less important and just as clean, […]
NOTE: I found this text on another Wordpress blog entitled GoogleTutor.com - it’s definitely worth checking out and bookmarking. I have reprinted the article below, just in case their site goes down as it really is wonderfully useful.
We’ve all got a little voyeurism in us. That’s why the recent article, Clearing Google Search History […]
Chris J. Davis, already ranked with several gold stars in my book, for his Wordpress evangelism and kick-ass Rate-It Wordpress plugin, has outdone himself once again. Why, you ask? Because he broke down SVN (an open-source version control software) into a simple, layman’s set of instructions that we can use on a Mac […]
Ever wonder why people who blog, advocate blogging, suddenly disappear? Every blog seems to regurgitate one of the “I’ve been to busy to post” posts, this one is mine!
But wait, more Elvgren and Taft goodies to come!
